Ron, I have a 12V 3A power supply. 4.5 x 2.25 x 1.25 inches approx.
I would trade for a sps frag or whathaveyou

Thanks Dietmar. I have a box of old AC/DC adapters so if I don't have a suitable one in there I'll definitely take you up on your offer. I have a few frags I can spare

Sounds good. Except, I wouldn't want the frag right away. I still have that 120 to build. When it gets done, things would even out. You get the PS now, I get the frag later.
Its only taken more than a year to build the stand!

After lots and lots and lots of wiring I have all the LEDs working. I decided to get fancy and do everything with molex connectors so stuff can be removed/replaced easily. But it looks a bit like wiring spaghetti right now. I'll clean it up as I mount it all in the housing. Here's the drivers and wiring and all the LEDS wired up:

And here it all is fired up.

Still need to mount optics, pick up some fans and I'm waiting for the Arduino parts which should arrive this week and I can figure out the controller.
